I tried my very FIRST greek yogurt today. Oikois Peach. It was yummy. The texture was a little different from what I'm used to. I like the 100 calorie Thick and Creamy Yoplait yogurts and the thickness of this one was a little different. No bad by any means just different. Something I will have to get used to. lol Now I…

So its ok to freeze eggs? Just wanna make sure. I've been told in the past not to freeze stuff that contained eggs so IDK.

Thank you for the suggestions. I suck at planning ahead. lol I will def try to make extra dinner servings and cook stuff on the weekends for my lunches. I honestly have NEVER had greek yogurt. I look at them and know they are good for me then put them back cuz of the calorie content. I usually end up with yogurts with 100…

I usually just have a protein shake in the morning but was craving something different. I know it sounds like an excuse but I honestly just don't have time to make stuff. I have twin 4 year olds I have to get up and ready for daycare and get myself ready for work and out the door by 715 am. I work about 20 or so miles from…

already ate the egg mcmuffin (that's not an all the time thing. only on occassion). I work pretty far out so I can't go home for lunch or eat out so the frozen meal is basically a staple for my lunches. Wish lunch time was easier than that for me. I don't get much time to cook and freeze meals so grab and go lunches are…

I have some Quonia (mispelled). I might make this and sub it for the rice. Wonder if it will cook in the crockpot nicely without cooking it before hand. hmmmm

Bump! I love Salmon Patties. How does everyone else fix theirs? I use canned salmon with an egg and crushed crackers. Mix and fry. Now I will try my convection or george forman though. I would love to see other recipes.

That's interesting. I think it's basically a cleansing diet. Not something that is sustainable and not so sure the weight loss would stick. Once you started eating right again, I'm betting the weight will come back but IDK.

Fish tacos. You can get the bags of frozen talapia at the store that are individually wrapped. Just cook in a skillet with a little olive oil and spices, place in a healthy corn tortilla with some broccoli slaw and a little LF sour cream and a tad of shredded cheese. Very yummy. You can serve it with some mixed fruit or a…

I always start with either a seaweed salad or squid salad and miso soup. Like everyone else said the shashimi is best when watching cals but you can get the raw slices on rice too to help fill you up. Just watch your rolls cuz the rice will add calories fast and say away from fried I love me some sushi!

I started this without actually knowing what I was doing. I saw a video on yahoo about sprinting for 60 seconds and walking for 60. So on Thursday, I didn't have much time to workout and wanted to get a good burn so I tried it. Did it again last night and today. I walk at 4.0 mph and run at 6.4 on the treadmill. That may…

Hmmm....interesting. I am very new to running. I don't like to run. I just started doing this the other day cuz I wasn't able to take a class and needed some cardio. I get bored easily so I wanted to mix it up for the best workout. I'm not sure how to log it since I don't wear a HRM so I just put it in as the ergometer,…

I have one nd love it. I think you have to be a member to buy it though. Might could et one on amazon.

I do a Zumba class at our gym 2-3 times a week. Nobody judges and alot of us look awkward. But it's so much fun and you get so involved in it that you completely forget that anyway. Just put yourself out there. I was so scared when I first walked in but that one time was all it took and I was hooked. You can do this. Go…

bump...me too. I want a body media but they are too expensive.

This is true

Where as this may be true, people can offer advice or knowledge without being rude,hateful and condescending. I've seen it a lot on these forums. We are not children and don't expect to be talked to as such. I think just some common courtesy and a little cooth when explaining something to someone would make it so much…

Just guessing.....I bet that is not a salad like with lettuce tomato and such. More like chicken salad you would put on a sandwich made with mayo.

You could ask the server to find out from the cook or take your own measuring cup with you and ask for an extra plate. Measure and place on the new plate. That way you know how much you are eating. WW showed us how to estimate portion sizes using our hand. Fist = approx 1 Cup Thumb (tip to base) = approx 1 oz of meat or…

So even though I started MFP in like October I think, I didn't get serous till Januay. Started a 90 day challenge at the gym on Jan 16. I lost 7 lbs that first month, which was 2 weeks ago. I just weighed in again today and lost zero lbs in 2 weeks. BUT, I did lose several inches. I was getting very frustrated with the…

FYI...the majority of my fluids do come from just water and tea though. I'm not a soda *kitten*. Well not anymore. lol

Here it is. It states that all fluids count towards your goal. I don't count regular sodas but I do count diet ones and all unsweetened teas and artificially sweentened drinks. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/water/NU00283

Yes. Only if it is unsweetened tea. I also count diet drinks. Let me find this article I read from the Mayo Clinic regarding water and I'll post it for you.

Yay! Congratulations. I love my Zumba class. My favorite though is Turbo Kick. Just wish they offered it more times a week during the evenings.

It's not silly if you are serious about counting your calories. Personally I haven't done it. Not that I haven't planned on it, just forgot. My SIL has though. Restaurants tend to give you much more than a serving on your plate. Therefore you tend to eat more. More food equals more calories. For someone who weighs and…

I really like the Dymaize ISO 100 Hydrolized Whey. I've only had the Gormet Chocolate and Vanila but they taste really good and mx well. 106 calories and 24g of protein and 1 carb

I really lie Dymatize Iso 100 Hydrolyzed Whey Protein. It's 106 calories with 24g of protein and only 1 carb. It mixes really well and tastes great.

I put spaghetti sauce on it as well. However, I made a side dish with it once but just adding a can of cream of mushroom soup to the cooked squash and mixed and served. It was yummy and eveyone loved it.
